      Pros

      Good place to get sales 101 training for example, learning presentation skills, objection handling, manage the sales cycle, learning to close.

      Cons

      Compensation is very heavily weighted on only new sales and so you don't develop or manage customers. Micro Managed to their process and they DO NOT allow out-of-the-box thinking. No negotiation with customers on contracts, must be done the Unifirst way. Bad reputation for sales turn over. Unrealistic sales goals and little sales management support in the field. Lack of technology tools. Territories can be divided unevenly.

      Pros

      They have health insurance but you have to pay for half of it.

      Cons

      It's a publicly traded company, but one family owns a majority of the 20 million shares outstanding. You can work here but forget about making it into the executive suite.
